LAYING FLOCKS REQUIRE WATER Warm Supply Is Necessary During Colder Months. By C. F. PARRISH Farm ers and other interested per sons—prepare for somewhat of a shock: About 66 per cent of an egg is water! That doesn’t mean that eggs are not one of the best foods, but it does mean that the kind and amount of water a hen drinks is highly important. For this reason the extension divi sion of the North Carolina State col PAUL WILLISCROFT lege recommends the warming of Missionary drinking water for the laying flock during the winter and early spring months. It is well to remember Mr. and Mrs. Paul Williscroft, who that egg production will be greatly reduced and Old Man Winter will left Poland just six days before the dip heavily into your egg profits if German army entered that country, you permit drinking fountains to will speak at the Irrigon Full Gospel freeze over, or the water to become so cold the birds refuse to drink church Sunday and Monday evenings.

By strip rotation in the plots— planting corn rows across the slope and further breaking the slope with cross strips of close-growing hay crops to catch and strain out the soil that starts from the cultivated strips—the soil loss was cut to one twenty-fifth, a ton and a half a year instead of 4.3 tons. The water loss was only about one-fourth that from the all-corn plots. When the strips were plowed in as a part of the rota tion, the roots and tops helped to restore organic matter and main tain fertility. COLUMBIA NEWS By Mrs. Baxter Hutchison BOARDMAN NEWS ’ ctricRanqe Value! Beautiful New Cabinet Model Clipping Dairy Cows Probably the most important fac tor in keeping cows clean is clipping the hair short. Manure and other sources of bacteria naturally cling to long hair. A clipped cow is ob viously much more easily and quick ly cleaned. Clip the long hairs from the udders, flanks and tail in order that dirt may not cling to them. One hair, if it falls into the milk, may add as many as 30,000 bacteria. Because much of this dirt is solu ble and dissolves in the milk, it can not be strained out.
